This premium trading card features MODOK, one of Marvel's most iconic villains. His MCU debut in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania elevated his collector profile significantly.
The Ultimate Mental Organism
MODOK first appeared in Tales of Suspense #93 (September 1967), created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Originally George Tarleton, a technician for A.I.M., he was transformed through mutagenic experiments into a being of supreme intelligence—at the cost of his humanity.
What makes MODOK compelling is the tragedy beneath the horror. George Tarleton was an ordinary man transformed against his will into a monster. His genius-level intellect is matched only by his megalomania and cruelty.
